because_o these_o spirit_n themselves_o do_v in_o the_o affection_n that_o way_n bring_v in_o become_v taint_v in_o their_o own_o nature_n and_o substance_n those_o kind_n of_o aversion_n which_o

to_o give_v they_o of_o that_o food_n to_o eat_v whereas_o those_o thing_n that_o have_v contrariety_n to_o the_o particular_a humour_n or_o temperament_n of_o the_o stomach_n be_v not_o in_o that_o
